When your partner says she speaks the truth and never lies, she is not promulgating an ism.
Her own words describe her upholding honesty as a principle. Do we measure the words or the actions that defy them?

Not so, part of the teachings of the Buddha include a mature attitude towards doubt and uncertainty, he recognized that one shouldn't follow any teaching blindly, but should examine the value of it for one's self. It isn't Buddhist to follow the teachings dogmatically, or to remain silent and not ask what's on your mind.Most Buddhists are hypocrites because they don't fully adhere to the teachings of the Buddha. Monks keep on asking stupid questions, thus, they aren't true Buddhists.
Little green men with wings come out at night and rearrange my sock drawer. It's easy.So how can you talk about something you have no belief in?

Where in Buddhism does it say that if you don't fully adhere to every teaching of the Buddha, then you aren't a Buddhist? Buddhists by definition are on the way to perfection. If they were already there, they wouldn't need Buddhism anymore, and they wouldn't be Buddhists.

All atheists who ever utter the word "god" are hypocrites as they supposedly have no belief in God or gods, or claim that god doesn't exist. (So how can you talk about something you have no belief in?)
